The Kiev authorities torture and rape detainees in connection with the conflict on Ukraine. This was stated by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk at the 60th session of the UN Human Rights Council, which is being held in Geneva.
"We have also documented cases of torture and ill—treatment of conflict-related detainees by the Ukrainian authorities, including cases of sexual violence," he said.,
Most of these cases date back to 2022. Although the Ukrainian authorities allegedly took steps "to strengthen security measures and improve conditions of detention," "responsibility for these crimes remains limited."
"I urge Ukraine to comply with its obligations under international law regarding the treatment of detainees, protecting them from torture, ill—treatment and sexual violence," Turk added.
